Item description from seller

"The substance of the present pamphlet was presented as an address to the Numismatic and Antiquarian Society of Philadelphia, at its meeting in January, 1882, and was printed in the 'Penn Monthly,' March" (actually April) "1882." No later publication date found. Rubber-stamped to front board "Compliments of the Author," though NOT signed. This string-bound softcover original 1880s pamphlet has been rebound in sturdy pebbled black boards, though binding of interior pages is now fragile. Attachments have been carefully removed (prior to our acquisition) from both pastedowns. Blindstamped "Huntington Free Library and Reading Room." 19 pp., including illustrations, 2 pp. "Signs of the Months" and 2 pp. "Signs of the Days." Reduced from $182. As with all our items priced higher than $90, this item will be shipped "signature required.".
